One of our “must-do” events to celebrate every birthday in our family is a photoshoot! I’m kinda a wanna-be photographer (I go by the rule of the 100s….for every 100 photos I take there is one good one) and I love capturing exactly the way they look at each age. Let’s be real, it never happens ON their birthday. But I try really hard to make sure it happens sometime during their birthday month.
We were finally able to do Second’s photoshoot last weekend. Handsome Hubby gave me a “oh boy whachu got going on in that brain of yours” look when I asked him if he would go make a mud pit for me. But he did it nonetheless! Great guy. And I think they turned out pretty cute… wish we could have found a big toad, but a small frog had to do.
So if you have a little boy in your life you need to photograph, try a mud pit! Loads of fun. And it might be a fun tradition for you to start, if you don’t already take photos of your kiddos each year. Happy photographing!

This is so cute! What a fun Mom, letting your son have a ‘Mud Pit’ photo shoot! My son is 9, and would totally love to do this! haha

I am really not that fun of a mom. Only for the sake of the photoshoot 😉

You really DID make a mud pit! I love the idea. These photos turned out super cute. I’ve discovered, however, when my boys see a mud pit, they think bath time. Oh the conversations that have followed.
Yes! Right after conference 😉 I was planning on it before that talk, so it was so funny when he told that story about the mud pit. Oldest said, “if I get muddy will I be allowed in the house?”
